Install MobileAP on Samsung Epic

-- update 4/19/2011 --
This no longer works on Froyo (EC05). Use Wifi Tether v3 instead after you root the phone. Beware, Wifi Tether sometimes is iffy and can really mess up your phone!

  1. Download one click root and root the phone
  2. Install Titanium backup from the market and remove Sprint hotspot
  3. Download MobileAP and put it on the sd card
  4. Download clockwork recovery
  5. Boot into clockwork recovery, apply the zip file from step 3
  6. Reboot the phone and goto Settings>Wireless and network>Mobile AP Settings to enable MobileAP
So far it works on both 3G and 4G. Right now I am able to get 3~4mbps/1mbps on the hotspot!

    SERO Premium

    If you are on a SERO plan and wanted a new phone, now is your chance. Sprint finally allows SERO accounts to get "iconic" or "4G" phones (WebOS, Android etc) after $10 buy up to become "SERO Premium". This $10 buy up also offers Any-mobile and Sprint navigation. If you want a 4G phone (Evo or Epic) you have to pay another $10 premium data add-on. If you have a phone ready remember to call 1-888-211-4727 from a landline so employee care can activate your new phone immediately. Below is my new plan
